Matt Roush says...
Sir David Attenborough has made a career of bringing nature alive on TV, and with this five-part docuseries, he turns his gaze from fauna to flora, with the dramatic and surprisingly expansive stories of plant life. You think animals need to fight for survival? Attenborough travels the terrain from deserts and mountains to rainforests and tundra to reveal through cutting-edge motion-control robotics how plants struggle to find sustenance and light, how they breed, communicate and care for each other. The first episode explores “Tropical Worlds,” rainforests where time operates differently and where trees grow quickly, flowers mimic dead animals and rain and light sustain life.
